"I am a multimedia artist and filmmaker whose creative journey wove its path across continents, cultures, and disciplines. Guided by a restless curiosity, I sought to explore the intersections of storytelling, performance, and visual experimentation—crafting works that were both unflinching in their honesty and dreamlike in their aesthetic.
My education took me across the globe, from Edinburgh to San Francisco, Paris to Los Angeles. These experiences shaped not only my worldview but my artistic language—one that fused literature, cinema, and visual art into a personal, evolving form of expression. Throughout my career, I participated in residencies and exhibitions in diverse settings, from Icelandic landscapes to London warehouses, Californian studios to cities across Central Asia. I was continually drawn to new frontiers—staging performance rituals, working within digital and virtual realms, and reinterpreting myth through a contemporary lens.
To those who encountered my art, I hoped it served as both mirror and portal—a space where creativity transcends borders and reflects the shared human condition."
